World Conference Against Racism


UNPO recently received a donation of Dutch guilders 1000,00 from the South African Embassy in The Hague. The donation is to be used to partly cover travel expenses of a UNPO delegate to the World Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa (Aug-Sept 2001).

UNPO General Secretary Erkin Alptekin personally conveyed the Secretariat's appreciation to the South African ambassador, Ms Priscilla Jana, when attending a cocktail reception at the latter's residence on 17 June 2001, in honour of South Africa's first lady, Mrs Zanelle Mbeki.
